Twin Atlantic Get a Taste of America's Liquor Generosity -- Exclusive Video

Twin Atlantic, the hard rock band from Glasgow, Scotland, has finally landed in the US in support of their upcoming album, 'Free.' The lead single, 'Edit Me,' is packed with controlled-burn distortion and power-pop vocals that sear up the middle of the mix. Spinner recently caught up with the band to talk about recording 'Free' and their favorite stateside gigs.

"There's one that sticks in my mind. It was in Portland. It was the first time we played there and we, by mistake, maybe had too much to drink," guitarist Sam McTrusty tells Spinner. "For that reason, I think it kind of loosened us up because we're not used to ... When you get like a drink over here that's like a spirit, it's like free-pour, whereas back in the UK everything's like measured out, so for that reason we went a bit nuts."
